Resident Evil Village Playstation 5 Related Announcement to Come During Next Event; Resident Evil 2,3 and 7 Are Not Coming to Nintendo Switch Due to Engine Issues - Rumor

New information on Resident Evil Village was supposed to be revealed this month, but it's now clear that Capcom changed its plans.

Well-known insider Sunset Golem, who correctly revealed information on the eighth primary entry in the serial before its official announcement, commented on the affair, saying that new data on Resident Evil Hamlet was supposed to be shown during Sony's August Land of Play. With Gamescom now over, the game is likely going to be shown off at the adjacent PlayStation 5 issue, as at that place is a Sony tied annunciation in the pipeline.

(2/2) PS5 event forthcoming they will probably testify it off again. I'one thousand really curious how Capcom'southward going to handle this though as TGS is after in the month and Resident Evil normally has a presence there. I do know at that place's an announcement for RE8 tied to Sony though.

Dusk Golem recently also talked about possible Nintendo Switch ports of Resident Evil 2, Resident Evil three, and Resident Evil 7, all powered by the RE Engine. According to the insider, these games are not going to hit the Nintendo panel, as Capcom tried porting the seventh entry in the series to the console, but did not go satisfactory results, leading to the release of the Cloud version that is merely available in Nihon as of now. Apparently, RE Engine games have to be developed with the Switch in mind.

I will crush ane dream with my RE Engine on Switch talk:

RE7, RE2 & RE3 aren't coming to Switch. They tried to port RE7 to Switch for a while one time, but had difficulty getting any satisfactory consequence. RE Engine games for Switch will need to exist made with Switch in heed.

It has been some time since we heard anything regarding Resident Evil Hamlet directly from Capcom. A playtest report from earlier this month revealed some additional details on playable characters, enemies, and more.

These new [enemies] carried swords and also had the ability to grab and bite the player as well. Our source compared the wait of these enemies to that of Krampus, the evil animal that punishes children at Christmas.

While hiding in the caves our source says they came across a file that chosen these new creatures "Strigoi", which interestingly enough take a base in Romanian folklore, which is fitting to the aesthetic we've seen thus far with Resident Evil Village.

There plainly was another one of the "witches" in the caves likewise that seemed to exist able to control the Strigoi going by the name of "Scarlett".

Resident Evil Village launches old in 2021 on PC and consoles.
